AI Technical Summary
The smoke generated by existing laser cutting machines cannot be effectively captured during the cutting process, especially due to the high heat, the smoke emits upward at a speed of 1-2 meters per second, and cannot form a stable transverse air flow, resulting in poor dust removal effect.
A suction hood is set up directly above the laser cutting machine platform, and the smoke enters the suction hood from bottom to bottom. The nylon cloth and sliding rod structure in the suction hood ensure that the movement of the cutting head is not affected. At the same time, a waste slag collection tank and a blowing tube are set up to improve the smoke capture rate.
Effectively capture and collect smoke and dust generated by cutting, reduce smoke and dust spillover and improve dust removal efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a smoke exhaust device for a laser cutting machine, belonging to the technical field of smoke exhaust for laser cutting machines. Background Art
[0002] Laser cutting utilizes a focused, high-power density laser beam to illuminate sheet metal, causing it to rapidly melt, vaporize, ablate, or reach its ignition point. Simultaneously, a high-speed airflow coaxial with the beam removes the molten material, achieving the desired effect. Compared to other cutting methods, such as plasma cutting, flame cutting, and wire cutting, laser cutting offers advantages such as a smaller heat-affected zone, faster cutting speeds, and superior cutting quality. Consequently, it has rapidly gained widespread application in sheet metal cutting.
[0003] Existing laser cutting machines generate a large amount of smoke and dust during the cutting process. To solve this problem, existing dust removal methods generally install exhaust ducts on both sides of the cutting platform of the laser cutting machine. The inlet and outlet of the exhaust ducts move with the laser cutting head. However, the width of the laser cutting machine is generally more than 3 meters, and some can reach 7-8 meters. Such a long distance cannot generate a stable horizontal airflow. Due to the high heat, most of the smoke generated by laser cutting is emitted upward at a speed of 1-2 meters per second, making it impossible to effectively capture the smoke and dust.
[0004] In summary, the existing technology has obvious inconveniences and defects in actual use, so it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content
[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies in the background technology, the utility model provides a smoke exhaust device for a laser cutting machine.
